By the way: Instead of what I really need, I get a
NullLogger.
I have no clue, why I never ever missed such an oddity.
I asked for it. And I use it, because I write libraries that
log warnings but don't forcefully require the users to
provide a Logger if they don't want to.
And that way, I can still write "logger.warningf" without
"if" everywhere.
But then it's better to provide no logger (or at least no
logger for level warning) than an artificial NullLogger.
My need is not "artificial", at least in my view.
Your opinion is different from mine. That's fine.
That's why we need someone to try to reconcile the many, many
opinions about this.
Not the need is artificial. For example, I have the need to
measure the performance of an application with and without
logging.
I think, the solution is artificial. The obvious solution would
be to register no logger at all.
